Wait - Hold on... You can't have it both ways. You say we suck because of the lack of talent, but we trade anything that even smells like talent. So let's just keep drafting "prospects" and hope their skill transfer to the NFL? This is a league of parity, we are supposed to reload, not rebuild. This falls on the coach. If he could manage people, he would find a way to leverage every ounce of talent we have, not trade them away for under-valued draft picks.

Fair points to be sure, and I agree, take the emotion out, and the trades were in the best interest of the team long term, but I think it speaks to how the "gina" handles talent and egos. He's got to show some respect for team leaders and players that take this serious and want to win. If his play is to draft superstars then trade them before their contract gets renewed, that the hell are we doing here? Sure Braylon drops balls, but he is tough to defend and can at least create separation. K2's impact was splitting cover 2 and was responsible for getting a lot of other receivers wide open. And why not PAY Cribbs during the garage sale? We all know he is one of the best. Show the team that effort gets rewarded. He's here, he performed, he needs to get paid just like everyother team rewards their top talent. You honestly think his bags aren't packed ready to move to a PROFESSIONAL team? I could list dozens of reasons why Gina's approach to managing this team will not work. I've seen these A-Holes before. More worried about policy, ego micro-management, and personal authority, than common sense football. Who's the next Browns HOF'er? Sad really...

Everyone says we suck due to the lack of talent on the team. Yet when we get talent like K2 and Edwards, Mangina can't manage the egos. If he thinks he can just draft his way to success, he's wrong. Top talent always comes with egos, dynamic personalities, and they require the head coach to address and manage the issues that tend to follow top players. This fat-ass will always be a ball boy to me. He set this franchise back another 6 years, and no good free agent will even consider Cleveland. Eric Mangina should be working for the government where his dysfunction can be best served. Hey ERIC - Please resign, we beg you. Your player fines, personnel choices (DA worse QB EVER) and lack of general understanding of how to manage a professional football team are painful to watch. You are making me embarrassed to be a Cleveland Brown fan, and I am putting any team support on hold until you are removed from this position. Best of luck selling used cars. Maybe you will get another sucker like Randy Lerner to buy into your bullshit and actually sell a car. Please resign, we can’t not watch you continue destroying this franchise.
